  1. Unlike other Ordo Blood Bowl events, we don't quite have a fixed schedule for New Year's Blitz. The reason is that this format is so new, it is difficult to anticipate how long matches will take. We are playing four rounds of Dungeon Bowl, and we will observe the following timing conventions:

    • Minimum round time: 50 minutes
    • Maximum round time: 1.5 hours
    • Break time between rounds: 15 minutes
    • Final game each round: if the final table isn't finished before 50 minutes, the two coaches will have twenty minutes to finish the remainder of their game; if neither player wins, the game will be declared a 0-0 draw after the active coach's currently active player finishes their activation

    As a result, here is the loose schedule for Saturday's tournament: 

    • 10:30am: Registration and rules discussion
    • Apprx 11am: Game One begins
    • Apprx 12:30pm: Game Two begins
    • Apprx 2:00pm: Game Three begins
    • Apprx 3:30pm: Game Four begins
    • Apprx 5:15pm: Awards

    Due to the potential for draws, here is the scoring mechanism and tie-breakers for the event:

    • Win: 30 tournament points
    • Draw: 10 tournament points
    • Loss: 0 tournament points
    • Casualties caused: 1 tournament point for each casualty-caused that would earn SPPs
    • Found the ball first: 2 tournament points
    • Gold collected: 1 tournament per 10,000K gold collected in the Treasure Room in dungeons that feature that room
    • Scored first but didn't discover the ball first: 1 tournament point

    Our winner will be the coach with the most tournament points. The tie-breakers are (for results only, not matching):

    • Head to Head 
    • Strength of Schedule (as determined by SCORE)
    • Casualties Caused
    • Gold Collected

  2. Quick note, New Year's Blitz participants: if there is a situation not covered by the rules we will revert to the most conservative interpretation. For example, @MrCushtie has been asking some real noodle-scratchers in the Dungeonbowl Fans Facebook Group, and not getting many replies. For example:

    Quote

    "Fumblerooski allows you to place the ball in any square you vacate as you move or blitz. Does that include a teleporter? I'm imagining some sort of shenanigans where you teleport in one direction and (hope) the ball goes in another. (The rules say a loose ball that lands on a teleporter is teleported. Since a Fumblerooski'd ball is *not* loose, will it teleport? Or should it sit there (similar to the debate about whether a person who is knocked down on a Both Down on a teleporter should teleport or not)."

    In cases like this that are not covered in the rulebook, we will rule that the ball bounces from the teleporter, and does not teleport to a different teleporter.

    Wow.  I must say I am shocked to find another healthy BB league in the PDX area.  We have been playing all up and down the west coast for a good dozens of years.   How did we not find each other? 🙂  

     

    I would love to know more about your league?  Hope you dont mind me picking your brain?  Is it newer players or old vets?  I am sure I will have more q's but dont want to pester...yet 🙂  lol.

    I echo all this
